I finished my first quilt ever! Hurrah! It was hand quilted and made using a pattern from Alex Anderson's book "Start Quilting" 3rd
edition (2009). I am kind of proud of my hand quilting stitches. They are wobbly and a little uneven, but not too bad for my first time. :-)

I finished this quilt on Christmas day--just in time to give it to my niece for Christmas.

Cheryl, wow beautiful quilt and great quilting! I'd be pretty proud to call this my first quilt, good job! Your color choices are beautiful! Your niece should cherish this especially since it's your first. I wasn't as generous, I kept my first.
